ROGER JINDRA
OCTOBER 18, 2011
Roger Jindra, 64, Crivitz, died Saturday, August 6, 2005 at a Milwaukee hospital. He was born August 27, 1940 in Two Rivers to the late Oscar and Viola (Fronk) Jindra.
Roger served in the US Navy for six years. On May 20, 1983.
He married Rebecca "Becky" Heinritz in Green Bay. He was employed by Packerland Packing in sales for 33 years of dedicated service, retiring in 1999.
